Stephen King Cast

In this special bonus episode, I examine The Waste Lands within the greater context of The Dark Tower.  Please note that this is a spoiler-filled episode that analyzes the entire Dark Tower series, so if you haven't finished the series, avoid this episode!

This week on the Stephen Kingcast, I board a train that takes me back to Mid-World for the third entry in Stephen King's Dark Tower series, The Waste Lands!  Considered by many to be the best Dark Tower book, the novel includes insane robots, a newly formed ka-tet, a haunted house, city pirates, ZZ Top and the introduction to our favorite Billy Bumbler, Oy!   Does this book hold up?  Find out this week in The Stephen Kingcast!

This week, I examine the adaptation of Stephen King's final Castle Rock story, Needful Things.  How does it compare to the book?  Find out this week in the Stephen Kingcast!

Please note that this is the second part of a two part episode.

In this week's episode, I head back to Castle Rock one last time for Stephen King's final Castle Rock story, Needful Things. Starring The Dark Half's Alan Pangborn, our small town sheriff must battle ancient evil as it comes to town to tempt its citizens and turn small town life into chaos.  Does the grand finale of King's most famous fictional town end with a bang or a whimper?  Find out this week in the Stephen Kingcast! Please note that this is part one of a two part episode.

In this week's final review of Four Past Midnight, I head back to Castle Rock for the prequel to 1991's final Castle Rock Story, Needful Things, with the small town tale of terror, The Sun Dog.

In this week's episode, I examine The Library Policeman, the third entry in Stephen King's 1990 novella collection, Four Past Midnight.

Welcome back to my ongoing review of everything related to Four Past Midnight!  This review examines 2004's Johnny Depp starring adaptation of Secret Window, Secret Garden, known to moviegoers simply as Secret Window.  This movie came out during the peak Johnny Depp reinvention years, just after he resurrected his career with Captain Jack Sparrow.  So what does peak Depp in a King adaptation look like?  Find out this week in the Stephen Kingcast!

In this episode, I continue my examination of Stephen King's 1990 novella collection about our relationship with time, Four Past Midnight.  Specifically, I analyze the second entry, yet another tale of a writer and his writing, the suspenseful, introspective and very personal Secret Window, Secret Garden.

In 1995, ABC decided to make a two part adaptation of Stephen King's The Langoliers. Is it as bad as you remember? The answer is no.   It's worse.
